A Rose For Espona

Intro:

( ) (2x)




Do you feel the thorns,

You see the tears,

Do you see the blood shed in this fell war?

Have you forsaken us,

Have you forgotten our faithful men calling your name?

While i stand before you, while we perish, while i lay down a crimson rose,

While holding hands are forced apart, while hopes bog like condemned men... - were you there?

The sky is falling on me

As your hands turning old and week,

I m giving myself up to thee

A futile sacrifice gone sere! (falling on me)


In your nemeton

These grey stone walls

Are cold and silent as the fallen.

Mother gone deaf, mistress of shattered hopes and forever broken dreams, were you there?


The sky is falling on me

As your hands turning old and week

I m giving myself up to thee

A futile sacrifice gone sere


Sacrifice (epo, epo, why hast thou forsaken me?)

Together we go unsung

Sacrifice (into thy hand i conmmend my spirit)

Together we go down with our people

(here i don t know the chords)

( Bm Bm G A ) x 2




(were you there,

Were you there?)


The sky is falling on me

As your hands turning old and week

I m giving myself up to thee

A futile sacrifice gone sere

Falling on me...

( Bm Bm G A ) x 2
